The Best Pore Cleansing Devices to Play Dermatologist With

You've heard the praises and read the raving reviews, but does this pore-busting product live up to the hype? The answer is yes, coming from a skincare skeptic who has tried it. Here's why: The swiveled spatula works in two modes, extract and infuse. The extract mode pushes out gunk from your pores, like excess oil and blackheads, while the infuse mode penetrates products deeper into the skin, like your go-to serum or moisturizer, past the skin's barrier. The result is nearly invisible pores. 

With over 2,500 five-star reviews on Amazon and an amazing price of $27, it's hard not want to try this pore vacuum. Equipped with five power settings to tend to different skin types and needs, this smooth suction head is designed to work with the skin, not against it. It will gently remove pesky blackheads with a painless process that can even reduce the look of wrinkles and fine lines. 

A smart gadget for your skin does exist...in the form of a USB-charged handheld blackhead vacuum. The Amazon reviews are in, and this one's up with a 4.8 out of 5-star rating. You can control everything from this little LCD screen, like adjustable suction levels, battery status and the operation process. It's a mighty but gentle machine that sucks out stubborn blackheads, whiteheads and zits. 

If your pores are crying to be cleaned from a fun night that resulted in you sleeping in your makeup, or just excess grime and build-up, reach for this three-in-one. It's a ($30!) multitasking device that cleanses, moisturizes, and lifts the skin in three different modes using vibrations. Use the cleansing mode for up to five minutes to refresh your pores, the moisturizing mode for 10 minutes to speed up product absorption into the skin, and the lift mode for 10 minutes to firm-up the skin. 

Play dermatologist and turn your bathroom into an in-office treatment room with this microderm device. Each disk offers a different level of intensity to offer a deep exfoliation that will do away with rough patches, acne scars and acne. Made for all parts of the face and body, the soft suction also increases cell turnover, resulting in better skin elasticity and smoothness. 

Lots of mysterious stuff is trapped in our skin and this curved spatula made of stainless steel needs to be your secret weapon to remove it. It works overtime on clogged pores to shrink their size and sloughs away dead skin cells for a smoother surface. The vibrations feature ultrasonic wave frequencies, which deeply rejuvenates the skin for a long-lasting glow. 

This pore extractor features a targeted tip that's made for you to gently glide across the skin in circular motions—just be careful to not work it across one area for more than three times—for a deep cleanse and exfoliation. It also comes with a blackhead tip that applies just the right amount of pressure to properly extract them. Start by incorporating this into your skincare routine once per week to reap the benefits. 

For just $25, this hefty tool also has high frequency vibration and several modes to serve specific ailments. Along with its cleanse and lift mode, it also has an Ion+ and Ion- setting. Ion+ lifts unwanted oil and build-up from environmental elements. Ion- allows a deeper product penetration, so save your favorite serum for this. It also tightens sagging skin and promotes blood circulation for extra plumped skin.  

It's hard to beat a nearly perfect Amazon score (4.9 out of 5 stars) and a $30 price point. This sleek tool does all of the things: removes blackheads, oil, acne and exfoliates with multi-functional suction probes that treat sensitive, dry, mature, oily, or combination skin. The easy tool is rechargeable and according to the reviews, apparently really easy to clean. 

This new tool is everything you'd ever want in a blackhead buster. What's cool about it is it has LED lights and a camera. LED lights not only improve your skin texture overtime but the camera  captures really clear images of your skin that will show its current condition in an app. This is what you call pore investigation 2.0.
